Just tried to add diesel via can and funnel with the engine running, but it didn't run in freely with the engine running. Goes in fine with engine off.
Breather is clear - I can blow through it and feel air coming out of the tank via the filler.
I could add fuel while running with the old engine, and can do it on Fairwinds, which has a similar engine (Beta 14 instead of 16)
I presume this is the fuel return line slightly pressurising the tank, would probably work with a bigger breather or a wider, less kinked filler pipe.
Not an issue now I know about it, but curious.
